Was going to post a rant about how the current situation with the funds depresses me the most and have decided that it serves no purpose.

This is better/more specific context: tl:dr National abortion nonprofits spending less, leaving abortion funds to pick up the slack bsky.app/profile/beck...

I just saw on Twitter that Planned Parenthood and National Abortion Federation are cutting funding nationally for abortion funds. If you can spare it, set up a recurring donation to your local abortion fund or the National Network of Abortion Funds at abortionfunds.org

hi bluesky 👋 long time no talk! These last few months, we've been organizing at an incredible rate (460+ stores now fully unionized!), and 100s of workers are finally at the bargaining table making good progress on the foundations of our contracts. Sign our pledge to get national/regional updates👇

I really think it’s the so-called moderates and centrists this time. Most regular Liberals seem to me to be very afraid of a redux of 45 and very much would like to engage in a strategic electoral campaign that defeats him. Elite Dems seem unable to offer any direction to them.

If people don't understand how crucial local abortion funds are to folks actually getting their procedures or pills, here's the latest example: National Abortion Federation and Planned Parenthood are slashing patient grants from 50% to 30% of what callers need. Thirty percent.

Same and I can’t stand Biden. Are the Democrats currently losing? Yes and if they actually run a competent campaign, it’s a coin flip.

When people were pointing out that the NYT was actively cheerleading Israel's genocide of Palestinians, several people said that this wasn't the case. Now some of these same people are witnessing their full court press to get Biden to step down and this is legible to them. What gives?

I think you're right. I do think that this bodes badly for what's to come. If we [and here I mean Leftists] can't sustain the infrastructure needed to provide material support for people who really need it now, it's hard to see that we'll do it under even more repressive conditions.

"The Abortion Fund of Ohio supported about 100 patients a month in 2022. By 2023, that grew to 360 patients a month, and now they’re averaging more than 500 patient requests every month ― a 400% increase in two years, as executive director Lexis Dotson-Dufault told reporters earlier this month."

“I’m afraid that there is this level of complacency that has happened post-Dobbs,” Njoku said. “This is not the same movement that it was five years ago, let alone 50 years ago, and yet we’re still operating and funding as if it were the same issue as it was before.”

If Democrats feel that this is a core threat, then what's the political education plan? Are they turning the document into an audiobook? Are they hosting Project 2025 teach ins? Are they creating a Democratic Project 2025? Like what's actually happening in reality?

Not trying to be antagonistic - it's still early in the AM - but I wonder how many of the people on socials 'talking' about Project 2025 have read through the full document. It's very very long. What is Project 2025 actually shorthand for at this moment?
